Next month, audiences will be able to see "When We Fall Apart," Joe Goode's latest work commissioned by and running at Z Space. On stage, you'll be able to see a fragment of a house that is constructed of pinewood slats that function like venetian blinds.

The creator of the house, architect Cass Calder Smith, collaborated with Goode to create the house to reflect the ballet's theme of an intricate and fragile relationship between house and body. The two decided that they wanted to make the house, a symbol of stability, unstable.

Smith, best known for his restaurant designs (Lulu, Perbacco, Rose Pistola, 25 Lusk to name a few), was inspired by Gordon Matta Clark, who was best known for his site-specific works in which he carves out sections of buildings to reveal their hidden construction.

And if you go to Z Space next month, check out how Smith and Good reconfigured the theater to create a theater in the round in rectangular form: Seating will be on both sides of the stage aimed toward each other with no back stage.
